if you prestige the second time, do you lose your prestige challenges?

I stayed at level 70 first prestige until I got my gold SCAR medal (500 headshots). Then I worked on the AK-47 for a while but got bored and prestiged again. I'm happy to report that none of the weapon prestige challenges reset -- so I now have like 600 headshots on the way to 1000 headshots with the SCAR. But all of the other challenges reset, and -- I think -- even some prestige challenges reset.

But if you stay at level 70 on 1st prestige, I bet the same thing happens to you. Eventually, you'll be like, "wow, 15000 experience points that round, and they're all wasted?" And you'll prestige again. This next time around, I won't even stick around level 70, I'll just prestige again right away. With the 3rd prestige, you get another custom slot again.

No way I'll make it to 10th prestige. I am certain I'll be bored of the game by then. Already, I'm getting a little less infatuated with it. I'm looking forward to the new maps, if they ever make their way to the PS3.

Well, EVERYONE uses ACR! At least when you prestige, you get a chance to get some experience with the other guns again. You're forced to!

FWIW, the first time I prestiged, I thought it was difficult but you'll find yourself doing just as good pretty quickly, and even getting better. The hardest part initially is getting used to other weapons again. I'm at level 40-something now on my second prestige. The first time, I felt like you. But this second time, I've been doing well right from the start even at the lowest levels, maybe because I knew what to expect. You won't get quite the same crazy number of kills because you don't have the same killstreak rewards right away, but you should find yourself doing well again pretty quickly.

For me, not having Ninja Pro is the biggest annoyance. I love the silent footsteps. I also miss Cold Blooded and the Stinger for taking out air support. Otherwise, it's really not so bad. You get ranked against lower players than when you're level 70, and as a result, you'll find yourself winning most of the close combat one on ones.

I stuck around level 70 on 1st prestige for quite a while. This time, once I get past level 70, I'm going to 3rd prestige right away. I like the AK47 (a lot!), but I have more fun leveling up from level 1.

So, once you finish prestige, you can do it over again? I didn't know that. Makes sense though.
